This isn't a collection of stories.
It's one friendship—one that began with laughter and trust, and ended with silence.

We talk about breakups. We talk about divorce. But friendship breakups—the slow fades, the quiet ghostings, the grief of losing "your person" without explanation—are rarely acknowledged. And yet, they can be some of the deepest wounds we carry.

In The Friends We Let Go, Lauren Christine opens her heart and tells the story of losing her closest friend. Not to vilify, not to dramatize—but to name the grief most of us are never taught how to carry.

Through this single, intimate story, she offers:

  • Language for the heartbreak of friendship loss
  • Validation for the loneliness, confusion, and shame that follow
  • Gentle guidance on how to create your own closure
  • Reflection prompts to help you explore your own experiences
  • Hope that even endings can shape us with meaning
  • This book is both memoir and mirror. A companion for anyone sitting in the ache of a friendship that slipped away, reminding you: you're not alone, and you're not wrong for still missing her.
